Hey everybody, I'm Sid. I've been lurking this site for the past 3 months, just looking at the lessons and guides. I recently graduated and got a job. I started playing several years ago, but have had long gaps, so I'm not really sure what level I'm at. Mostly, the internet and Guitar Pro have been my teachers, and while they've given me alot of cheap thrills, they've left me with many bad habits, poor ear training, sloppy leads and sucky improvisation. I'm determined to put in the hours, progress as fast as possible and not have any barriers in my playing. I'm happy I decided to join this forum, I'm growing my hair long and have plans to rock harder than I've done before! \m/ And finally I hope that even if I don't achieve my personal goals, I have the best time getting to know and learn with other members and instructors on this forum

Welcome to the family Sid, enjoy the journey, try easy, you will improve.

Aaaw, man, thanks so much! That means a lot to hear! I've honestly not been practicing as much as I should, but I'm really giving it a good go these days. Hopefully I can post some new stuff soon
